A unicorn's immune system is bolstered by their magic. Any ailments they develop simply dampen spellcasting until things work themselves out internally. Stronger mages tend to not get sick at all, but Trixie Lulamoon is not a strong mage.

Life is a performance for Trixie. Disasters must be kept backstage and away from audience eyes. But the curtains are closing on her solo act, and somepony needs to notice so they can hop onstage to help her. She's too proud to ask for volunteers.

This is an entry in the Snippet Series, an anthology of old oneshots that I (and my good buddy Str8aura) wrote based around interesting pics I found. New ones will be posted every other Thursday for the foreseeable future.

Celestia is totally exhausted working hard day in day out, and eventually decides to use magic to get herself some much-needed rest. The spell she uses is a mite too powerful though, and isn't she in for a shock when she wakes up...

Commissioned by someone who wants to remain anonymous. Thanks for the idea though, dude!

With Gen 3 wrapped and Gen 4 getting underway, longtime lurker Pinkie Pie lands her biggest role yet: A logo face for the pilot in progress.

Ponies old and new converge on one soundstage where an impassioned new director named Faust is working to realize her vision. All agreeable as far as Pinkie is concerned. If it helps improve the show, she's happy to fill any role, no matter how small.

Anon is a villain. Not a particularly good one, but... he’s a villain. Let’s see what stupid shit he did this time.

A one-shot inspired by “If movie Villains didn’t waste time”

Lonely Love is the perfect matchmaker. When somepony is in love with another, she can tell with just a glance. The problem is that nopony seems to love her.

This story is a sequel to Want it Need it

Lonely Love has always had a magical ability to 'see' love.
After the incident involving the illegal 'Want it, Need it' spell, Lonely Love was brought on to be Twilight's student, and for the first time, Lonely could see that someone was in love with her. Now she has to tell that someone that she likes her back. She definitely isn't prepared for Twilight's response.

This story is a sequel to Your Money or Your Wife

The position of the Imperial Tax Collector has since always been crucial to the well-being of the Crystal Empire. Legal Basis, having secured it through the unorthodox means of mugging Princess Cadance, revolutionized the system of duties, tariffs and necessary extortion of funds through his experience in the field of brigandage.

Even during the romantically consumptive time like Hearts and Hooves Day, work continues as always and one cannot care one bit for the Cupid’s arrow.

... but what about a club?

This story is a sequel to Your Money or Your Life

The cunning Queen Chrysalis is back, seeking vengeance upon all of the ponies! To fulfill her desire, but avoid unnecessary exposure, she decides to infiltrate the Crystal Empire and acquire aid from one of its very residents, by seduction, persuasion, or coercion if necessary. That way, she can plot away in safety, utilizing the fool until he outlives his usefulness!

Surely a professional and ambitious upstart with a shady background, who has just been appointed the new Imperial Tax Collector, is the perfect target.

… maybe too perfect?
